(ii) Plan A and Plan C give the same cost. (iii) Plan B and Plan C give the same cost.arrow_forwardThe Turners want to install outdoor carpet around their rectangular pool. The dimensions for the rectangular area formed by the pool and its walkway are 20 ft by 30 ft. The pool is 12 ft by 24 ft. aHow many square feet need to be covered? bApproximately how many square yards does the area in part a represent? cIf the carpet costs 12.95 per square yard, what will be the cost of the carpet?arrow_forwardSolve each problem.

- Clearance A department store is clearing out merchandise in order to make room for new inventory. The plan is to mark down items by 30% each week. This means that each week the cost of an item is 70% of the previous week’s cost. If the original cost of a sofa was $1,000, the cost for the first week would be $1000(0.70) and the cost of the item during the second week would be $1,000(0.70)2. Complete the table shown below. What will be the cost of the sofa during the fifth week? Simplify the expression, to show the cost in dollars.arrow_forwardSolve each problem.

- Two machines are used to produce the same product. One machine has a capability of producing 750 pieces per 8-hour shift. It is operating at 80% of its capability. The second machine has a capability of producing 900 pieces per 8-hour shift. It is operating at 75% of its capability. Find the total number of pieces produced per hour with both machines operating. Round the answer to the nearest whole piece.arrow_forwardEnclosing a field You have 16 miles of fence that you will use to enclose a rectangle field. a.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 3 miles and length 5 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? b.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 2 miles and length 6 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? c.The first two parts of this exercise are designed to show you that you can get different areas for the rectangle of the sane perimeter, 16 miles. In general, if you arrange the 16 miles of fence into a rectangle of width w miles, then it will enclose an area of A=w8-w square miles. iMake a graph of the area enclosed as a function of w, and explain what the graph is showing. iiWhat width w should you use to enclose the most area? iiiWhat is the length of the maximum-area rectangle that you made, and what kind of figure do you have?arrow_forwardSolve each problem.
